Office 2010 key finder

A Office 2010 product key is known as a cd key or a serial key for installing Microsoft Office 2010. For people whose professional or even personal lives depend upon electronic media, a Microsoft office key is everything. However, what does one do if he loses that product key and finds himself in a fix?

Usually a Microsoft product key would be on a sticker attached to the inside or the disc case, or at times even accompanying the manual that comes with the purchase of Microsoft Office 2010. But, if your computer or laptop came preinstalled with Microsoft Office 2010, then you will find the product key in an email which you will receive from Microsoft.

A question arises here: What should a person do if he loses his product key?

There are several ways you can retrieve your lost key. This is because a product or serial key is located in the registry. However, it is not readable hence cannot be manually searched. Rather it is encrypted, so it can only be found by using of the several key finder tools available in the internet marketplace.

The following steps will ensure an easy Microsoft Office 2010 product key retrieval. The following steps are very easy to follow, and the whole procedure doesn’t take more than a few minutes.

First and foremost, like mentioned earlier, manual retrieval of the product key is near to impossible as the key is encrypted in Windows registry. However, there are several key finder tools available online, which can help you retrieve your key. One thing you need to ensure is that the selected key finder tool supports the 2010 version of Microsoft. You next step would be select a key finder program that suits your requirements and supports Microsoft Office 2010 and download it. Lazesoft Windows Key Finder is best in the market and supports not only Microsoft Office 2010, but most other versions of Microsoft as well. Along with that, it is absolutely free, with no hidden charges. After you’re done downloading the required key finder tool, run the program and follow the instructions offered. This key finder program will automatically search your key from the Windows Registry and present a series of numbers and letters that represent your Microsoft Office key. This series of numbers and letters will contain 25 digits in total, divided into groups of 5. At this point, you need to write down the product key shown by the key finder tool exactly as you see it. Even a single misplaced digit will fail an attempt of reinstalling Microsoft. Hence, it is essential that you transcribe the key exactly as shown by the key finder tool. Finally, you can use this key to reinstall your Microsoft Office 2010 and use it for any kind of purpose you require, be it professional or personal.

A few cases exist where the key finder tools are not able to retrieve or find the product key, nor does any other method work in order to locate the lost key. In that case, one should contact Microsoft and purchase the software suite again.
